Our Nguuni Nature Sanctuary is a launchpad for careers in rural Kenya. Through hands-on training in climate-smart agriculture, composting, and water conservation, we’ve empowered over hundreds of smallholder farmers, especially women, to start their gardens or become peer trainers. Read more about how Nguuni is inspiring the next generation of conservationists.

We are delighted to announce that Muthoni Muchiri (Noni) has joined The Haller Foundation as our new Chair of Trustees.

Noni is an award-winning Kenyan journalist and storyteller with over a decade of experience covering Africa’s rich and complex narratives - from politics and business to culture and everyday life. Her past work includes producing and presenting on ‘Africa Daily’, the BBC World Service podcast that brought daily African stories to global audiences.

In March 2025, the Haller Farmers App received the Environmental Impact Award at the 9th Digital Leaders Impact Awards. This feature explores how the app is transforming access to regenerative agriculture for smallholder farmers across East Africa.

Empowering female farmers across sub-Saharan Africa is key to driving economic growth, food security, and gender equality. Discover how organizations are unlocking opportunities for women in agriculture, helping them build sustainable livelihoods and break cycles of poverty.

Adapting to climate change—learn how Haller is empowering Kenya’s smallholder farmers, particularly women, with sustainable farming techniques to combat droughts and flooding. Through water conservation, composting, and innovative planting methods, we’re helping communities secure their livelihoods and protect their environment for future generations.

Education is at the heart of everything we do at Haller. It’s the foundation for sustainable change, empowering smallholder communities across Africa with life-long learning opportunities. Through farmer training, youth initiatives, and the Nguuni Education Centre, we are committed to fostering environmental stewardship, sustainable farming, and academic growth.

From our climate-smart training programs near Mombasa to the innovative Haller Farmers App reaching remote communities, we’re transforming lives. The Nguuni Education Centre, Kenya’s first free children’s library, continues to serve thousands of disadvantaged students, driving literacy and engagement.

Over 20 years, the challenges facing the smallholder communities Haller was set up to serve have shifted and evolved. But our approach remains rooted in a mission to bring together ecology and economy.

Bees play a critical role in the global food chain, pollinating around three-quarters of the world’s flowering plants which produce 90% of the world’s food. The FAO has estimated that one out of every three bites of food we eat depends on bee pollination.

As part of our new app launch, we wanted to take some time to reflect with our team in Kenya on the impact of the app to date, and why continued innovation is so important.
